Duoed a reive where I got way more exp than bayld every time and ended up with half the reward of the DD anyway. Was healing him non stop for 40 minutes. =D

What gives?

I'm looking for other stuff so I don't have the time to parse through it currently, and most of it has probably been mentioned but yeah

I remember seeing this a while ago in the .dats when trying to figure out the colonization rate and how it worked but gave up. I had a theory that each coalition gave about 15% colonization with the last 10% coming from Naakuals but it didn't pan out.

maybe you wre getting carry over? did you both get same reward each eval?

**NynJa** · 2013-04-19 11:19

Bayld never carries over, Look at one of my previous posts here.

So scout contributor unlocked for me survey Cirdas Caverns which I don't feel like doing since they are behind reives and analyze foret/morimar. Morimar can just buy marble nugget off ah for like 2k. It's less than last ranks assignment but it's so cheap can just do 1 imp at a time and get more than if you had been doing 3 at a time with the other and in the end still probably a tad faster

To the person who claimed that their rank in a coalition dropped; Is it possible that it just decays over time rather than having a cap across all like in crafts? Most people seem to focus on one rather than spreading them out and doing several. I'm thinking since said person had a higher rank in one coalition, then switched over to do another one, it might just have decayed to the point where it went down a rank by the time he was done with the other.

It was a friend who made the claim, but I have been doing Scouts for a week now, and am still Disciple with Inventors, so it is possible that he was mistaken on rank or something

Damage just seems to carry a higher level of value than healing/buffing in reives at the current time.

Same, I havent touched Courriers or PCK missions in like a week, and I'm still Probationer...I'm going to go with "someone miscounted" until someone else says you can get delvled.

Has anyone bought any of the Ergon Tinctures yet and seen how powerful the effects are?

**Rocl** · 2013-04-19 16:12

Only report I have seen is someone had bought one but was unable to use it anywhere. Only place I think not tried was Wildskeeper Reive and Skirmish.

**Uzor** · 2013-04-19 16:43

I assumed you need to trade it to the spring in Morimar (or other various places) to fill it up before you can use it, what with all of the different ones like this:
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/E._Tincture_(SP)

Or are those all buyable from the NPC?

Edit: nvm, apparently they're all buyable from the NPC. I assumed you got an empty one and then had to fill it yourself.

**Prothescar** · 2013-04-19 16:46

You can only buy each specific Tincture after you've done that specific Ergon Locus quest, though it seems you start with three base ones

I don't believe this is correct.
I don't think you have to do a quest, you just simply have to touch the Ergon Locus, and that makes it purchasable from the NPC.

**Prothescar** · 2013-04-19 17:35

would explain where I got these three then, I haven't done a single scout's coalition task

Saw earlier in the thread that JP wiki had Recover: Foret and Morimar listed as 1500 for 1 tag and people were unsure if that was correct or just assumed on their part. Can verify its correct. Back to spamming Ceizak cause those pops are seared into my mind.

**Gwynplaine** · 2013-04-19 17:54

I'm curious what the highest % colonization is now that the decay rate decreased. Ceizak is 47% right now on my server, how about all-a-y'all.

49% for Ceizak on Bahamut. Going to hit up the Scouts NPC at 50% to see what's increased.

Edit: 50% now, but no change at the Scouts NPC, unless there's some sort of period (every hour or something) that he updates his intel.

**Slycer** · 2013-04-20 01:50

Tchakka down on Fenrir. Mostly downed by Thunder Shots (area at 35%~ colonization, Thunder V was doing 650-750), took about 90 minutes. Suijingiri KM for my level 53 SAM ftw.

Also, "Marine Mayhem" is the move you want to stun (I stunned him a lot throughout the course of the fight and he never resisted). I don't think he can use it until 25%. AoE instant KO, relatively long charge time. Pretty good AoE too, at least 15' (took out a good 20 people). In case anyone didn't believe that SE fixed the death thing, it's definitely fixed. Someone in my group was down and got up right as it died, still got item.
